Mona pulls up in front of her house turning off the car she turns to Paige "I'll get your bags. My mom probably wants to see you right away."

Paige looks at the front door "I'll say she's running up to the car."

Paige's door opens "Oh Paige are you okay? Come in. Come in. Mona get Paige's bags please."

Mona steps out of the car "I'm already on it mom."

Paige climbs out of the car "I'm fine. Thank you for putting me up for a bit. I get my exam results on Thursday so I'll be out of your hair then."

Leona guides Paige to the house "There is no rush Paige. Take your time to plan where you are going to go."

Paige nods taking the few steps to the front door "Yes ma'am. I just really want to get out of Rosewood."

Leona winces "Why are you calling me ma'am? I am your aunt for gosh sakes."

Paige looks down with a frown "I'm sorry. It's just I don't want to get kicked out of another home. My life is falling apart. I don't know what I'm going to do. Somebody tried to run me over the other night. It ruined my bike. There is nothing to salvage from it. My broken wrist might have me losing my scholarship to Stanford. I mean I am lucky I only got a broken wrist out of the whole thing but I..."

Paige grabs at her chest "I can't, I can't breath."

Leona grabs Paige's face "Paige. Hey look at me. Deep breath in." Paige copies Leona. "And out. Good. Let's do that again. Deep breath in and out." When Paige is calm Leona looks to Mona "I have her set up in the guest room but because of this I would like for her to stay with you tonight."

Mona nods "I'll go set up the cot."

Mona carries Paige's bags up to her room.

Mona comes back downstairs fifteen minutes later "The cot is set up. Come on Paige it's been a long day let's get you to bed."

Paige stands up stumbling into Mona. Mona catches her bracing her and helping her upstairs.

Mona opens Paige's bag "Yikes. These are some nasty clothes. This is what your dad gave you."

Paige curls up under the blankets in the cot "All my good clothes are in my hamper. Nicholas probably took everything out of my room and donated them to some charity. My phone is probably disconnected. The car is probably re-registered to my mom. Everything is gone."

Mona sits on the cot "Paige relax. Everything will be okay. I know it doesn't seem like it right now but it will get better. I will help you. My mom will help you."

Paige turns over "He said 'At least I have one normal child.' How am I not normal? What is normal? Who is the 'Normal child?' Do they know about me?"

Paige sits up "Can I use your computer?"

Mona stands up getting her laptop and handing it to Paige. Paige logs into her Facebook looking at a friend request.

Mona asks "Who is Paisley Richmond?"

Paige shakes her head "I don't know. He sent a request a couple of months ago. I checked out his page there are no pictures. All of his friends are asking where the pictures went."

Mona returns to Paige's page "How long have all these messages from Alison been going on?"

Mona scrolls down looking through various insults from both CeCe and Alison. Every message from one is liked and added on to by the other.

Mona shakes her head "This is horrible. It goes back like six weeks. Does Emily know about this? Have you shown anybody?"

Paige sighs "It's not like she would do anything. Alison is everything Emily ever wanted. Anything Alison says is law. Tonight was most likely going to be a round of questions about what I know about the Anti Alison Club. Why can't she understand that Alison hurt a lot of people? Myself included. These people have the right to feel safe in their school. I mean I don't want to join the club but I won't rat anybody out."

Mona sighs "Before Alison left Emily was this blind little follower, then she grew into this fierce independent person, now she's back peddled into that same naive person."

Paige curls back up "I don't want to talk about Emily and her new/old obsession. I'm really tired can we go to sleep?"

Mona logs out of Paige's Facebook page closing down her computer "Yeah. Tomorrow we will get you a new computer. I can try and get everything off your old one."

Paige mumbles "Okay. Good night Mona."


Mona walks down the stairs stopping when she hears her mom on the phone.

Leona sighs "Yeah Paige is here. Nicholas kicked her out. For quitting swimming. I know it's the stupidest reason ever. She nearly had a panic attack. He took the phone, car, computer. Somebody tried to run her over destroying her bike. I think you coming would be great. Okay I will see you tomorrow."

Mona turns back around heading back to her room and climbing into her bed.


Paige wakes up to yelling, What time is it? Looking around Paige notices Mona's alarm clock 11:45am, I slept for like thirteen hours. Wow. It feels like I could sleep for thirteen more. What is all the yelling? Paige listens to the conversation.

"I know Paige is here Mona. Let me see her."

Mona spits "Why so you can quiz her on the Anti Alison Club? Leave Paige alone. You made your choice. After everything Paige told you about what that witch did to her. How could you choose Alison? Did you ever love Paige or was she just a place holder until something better came along? I thought you were better then that Emily. You are a user just like Alison. You knew Paige felt strongly for you so you manipulated her into thinking you loved her back so you could have a warm body next to you. Now that you've got Alison back Paige is back to being nothing to you. Get out of my house."

Emily shakes her head "I am not leaving until I see Paige."

Leona walks into the house with two police officers in tow "Yes you are. These officers will make sure of that. Did you honestly think you could come into my house and start yelling up a storm and I wouldn't do anything? Paige has been through a lot recently she doesn't need anything more from you. If she wanted to talk to you she would have called you. Now leave."

Emily looks at the two officers sighing "Fine." Emily takes one last look at the house before driving away. How am I supposed to get to Paige?


Mona walks back into her room "Oh you're awake. Sorry about all that yelling. Emily wanted to see you. My mom let me stay home from school today to help you out. Do you want to go get a computer?"

Paige sits up "Can I check my email first? I want to see if Stanford got back to me."

Mona hands Paige her computer. Paige logs into her account noticing nothing from Stanford but one from Alison. I heard you got kicked out of your house. Glad your parents finally realized what a mistake you are. I would have loved to see it. I would have been cheering them on. You are such a loser Pigskin. Why don't you just disappear? Kisses Alison.

Paige sighs logging out of her email and handing back Mona's computer "Thanks. Let me just have a shower then we can go."

Mona frowns "You aren't going to send a response. You can't let her get away with this Paige."

Paige turns to her "Responding is only going to egg her on. Alison is doing this to gain control. If I sent something back she will know she is getting to me. She will have the control. She is looking for anything that will turn everyone against me. If I hit back Alison will spin it in a way that makes me look like the monster and her look like the poor defenceless angel. I choose to rise above. Yes the words hurt and I have to admit I do believe them for a while. Then I remember letting them get to me is letting her win. I refuse to let her win. An eye for an eye starts a war. If you don't give them ammunition they can't fight. What's the use in becoming the very thing you are afraid of? I would rather let it make me a better stronger person."

Mona stares "Wow. That's so grown up. Go shower so we can go."


Mona looks down the hall "Crap."

Paige looks around "What?"

Mona grabs Paige pulling her into a store "Hanna is here, she is going to tell Emily we are here."

A voice sounds "No I'm not."

Paige and Mona jump. Paige greets "Hi Hanna. Why aren't you in school?"

Hanna shrugs "Why aren't you?"

Paige answers "I wrote my final exams yesterday. I am done."

Hanna sighs "I don't feel like going to school. My friend is in trouble and I am worried about her."

Paige frowns "Alison can take care of herself."

Hanna shakes her head "I was talking about you Paige."

Paige looks down "Oh. I am fine Hanna. There is no need to worry. We got to go we promised Mrs Vanderwaal we would be back before three. It's two thirty now."

Hanna pouts "Okay. Listen if you need anything Paige call me."

Paige nods "Okay. Thanks Hanna."

When they are a safe distance away from the blonde Mona whispers "How are you supposed to call her if you haven't got a phone?"

Paige shrugs "Get a phone."


Mona pulls up behind a red SUV parked in front of her house Paige's face lights up. Mona knows that look, Uncle Mic must be here.

Mona announces "I'll get the bags you can go in the house."

Paige looks at her "Are you sure?"

Mona nods looking at the house. Paige jumps out rushing past Leona into the house. Leona heads to the car grabbing some of the bags from Mona's car. Once in the house Paige rushes into the arms of the man standing just feet away.

Paige mumbles "He kicked me out. I quit swimming and he kicked me out. I have nothing."

The man soothes "It's okay. We will get you through this kiddo. You're alright."

Tears fall from Paige's eyes soaking the mans shirt. The man continues to soothe his niece until she is calm. Leading her to the table.

Once sitting the man asks "What are you planning on doing?"

Paige shrugs "I'm not sure. I have to stay until Thursday to get my exam results. If I passed them I want to get out of Rosewood asap."

The man corrects "You mean when you pass them. What happened to your wrist?"

Paige looks at her arm "Sunday night I was walking across the street when something told me to let go of my bike and dive. A car hit my bike sending it into the intersection. I broke my wrist in the land. The doctor said it should be healed in time for the swimming season so I can go to Stanford. I informed Stanford and am waiting for them to reply."

The mans cheek twitches as he thinks until he says "So you need to make your way to California. Do you think you could start classes next semester? You can stay with me until then. I could use some help around the shop. You'll have a roof over your head and be earning money. Once at Stanford you may not be swimming but you could be learning. You'll be a bit ahead of the game."

Paige hums "I could ask. If I'm in Stanford I could be working with the trainers on the swim team they could monitor my progress. You're a smart man uncle Mic."

Leona walks in "Paige you and Mona can set up your new computer I want to talk to Micole for a bit."

Paige stands walking out of the kitchen "Okay. Thanks for inviting him auntie."

Leona pats Paige's shoulder "You're welcome."


Leona sits across from Micole "Should we tell her. Now that Nicholas has kicked Paige out this is no longer his business."

Mic puffs out a breath "You are one sharp little miss sis. This could seriously upset Kath though. I mean Nick is an ass but do we really want to hurt our sister?"

Leona sighs "Kathryn did nothing to stop Nick. The whole reason they kept Paige is because she wanted a girl. Then she doesn't fight him when he kicks her out. He has the gull to throw the other sibling in Paige's face the day he kicks her to the curb. I wonder if Paisley felt it when Paige hurt her wrist?"

Mic leans back "We can ask him. Invite him and his 'Parents' over for supper. We have to get Paige ready for the meet first. With everything that's going on right now I don't want to overload her. What do you think Paige are you up for more crazy?"

Paige steps out from behind her hiding place "Can we wait until Friday? Gives me a few days to adjust to this."

Mic nods "Friday in Hershey. There's a car show this weekend."

Paige's face lights up "A car show. Sweet. Finally I have something to look forward to."


Caleb walks in "Hey I heard you got a new computer. Do you need help setting it up?"

Mic and Leona spit there drinks out at each other. Leona whispers "Are you seeing what I am seeing?"

Mic nods "There are three of them. I wonder if Nick knows."

Leona chuckles "This is good. This is really good. Do you think that's why Kath stayed despite everything?"

Caleb and Paige share the exact same confused look as they watch.

Caleb whispers "Do they know we can hear them?"

Paige shrugs "I don't think so or they'd be talking normal."

Caleb asks "What do they mean by there are three of them? Three of what?"

Paige shrugs "Three of me I guess. Well not exactly me but apparently I have a sibling or two."

Caleb winces "Yikes two more of you is frightening."

Paige punches his shoulder "Shut up. It kind of is but still shut up."

Mona comes in with two computers "I brought both of our computers Paige. Caleb I hope you brought yours. We could use help figuring out who Paisley Richmond is."

Paige looks at him "He friend requested me a couple of months ago. I haven't answered him yet because I don't know him. I am also thinking of deleting my Facebook account. If we find out who he is I might friend him on the new one. Oh and those two started whispering about there being three of them."

Mona gasps "Wow. Okay let's get to work so we know a little bit for Friday."

Caleb looks between them "What's Friday?"

Paige looks between Mona, Mic and Leona. Mic nods his okay.

Paige looks down "There's a car show in Hershey on Friday we are going. Paisley might be there."

Caleb gives a half smile "Let's find out more about this new development. Is your computer set up?"

Paige sits down "It will just take a few minutes."

Paige starts typing away on her computer humming as she works.

Caleb watches "Maybe if you..." Paige hushes him continuing her work. Mona suggests "What if you..." Paige glares her silent.

Caleb and Mona sit on either side of Paige their computer monitors facing away from Paige.

Paige groans "Stop trying to hack into my computer guys. Mona what are you doing?" Paige leans back glaring at Caleb "You're an ass. Turn it back on."

Caleb smiles pushing a button on his computer then shrieking "Hey."

Mona laughs "Serves you right Rivers. I was trying to strengthen her firewall you shut the computer off."

Caleb grumbles while the two girls high five each other.


Paige gasps "What happened to your arm and face?"

Leona and Micole rush to Mona inspecting Mona "Who did this to you?" Leona asks.

Mona sighs "Alison. I was walking across the street from the church when I got a text to meet someone in the church. I wasn't going to go but they ticked me off. When I got there Alison started to talk smack trying to get me to hit her. I didn't fall for it. I kept hearing Paige saying that Alison was doing this to get control falling for it would give her control and Alison would spin it into me being the monster. I tried to leave but she grabbed me when I asked her to let go she tightened her grip. Finally she let go slapped me and left. I went to the police station and talked to Lieutenant Tanner. She took pictures then told me to go home and that she'd investigate."

Leona clenches her fists "That little bit-She's barely back a month and she's already up to no good. I am going to go give that school and Kenneth a piece of my mind."

Paige and Mona shout "No." Paige continuing "Talking to them would let Alison know we are telling people. Right know Alison thinks she is lurking around intimidating and getting away with it. She will slip up and when she does that's when we act."

Leona and Micole look at each other. Leona sighs "Fine but one more incident with either of you and I will lose my sh-."

Mona shrills "MOM."

Leona looks at her "What? I can say sh-."

Micole interrupts "Easy Leo. We know you can say it. It doesn't mean you should."

Leona glares growling "Don't call me Leo Micole."

Micole growls back "Don't call me Micole Leona."

Paige makes an angry cat meow followed by Mona's hiss. The two adults laugh shaking their heads.


Paige checks her email the next morning looking for something from Stanford instead she finds another email from Alison. It looks like Emily has moved on from you. Thank you for keeping her warm for me. You don't get to be happy Pigskin. This kind of makes you wonder did Emily ever really love you? Or were you just a place holder until I got back? With a two minute video attached. Paige presses play immediately stopping it when Emily's lips meet Alison's. If this is two seconds in what is the other minute and fifty eight like? I should take this to the police in case it gets nasty fast.

Mona looks over Paige's shoulder "You aren't going to watch the rest of the video?"

Paige gathers up her computer "Nope. There is a minute fifty eight seconds left of the video if it gets dirtier I don't want to watch. The police might like the video though."

Mona looks at Paige in disgust "I don't think the cops are that dirty Paige."

Paige shakes her head "They are underage and possibly doing more then kissing Mona. I am pretty sure Alison sending me this is illegal."

Mona takes a second to think before her face lights up "The slip up. Oh and it's a really big one. I'll take you to the station hopefully Tanner is there."

Paige walks into the police station her laptop under her arm "I'm looking for Lieutenant Tanner. Is she in?"

A woman speaks "Yes I am. What can I do for you?"

Paige turns to the voice "Good morning. Is there a place we could talk privately?"

Tanner ushers Paige forward "Right this way."

Paige follows the woman into an interrogation room. Sitting down Paige starts "I received an email this morning from someone. It has a video attached I don't think is appropriate."

The woman raises her eyebrows "Really. Show me."

Paige logs into her email watching the video with the Lieutenant. Paige's stomach rolls I think I'm going to throw up. Looking at the date and time stamp on the video she frowns This is like three days after we broke up. Did Emily ever love me? How could she do this if she did?

Lieutenant Tanner speaks "You were right to bring this to me. This is child pornography. Can I take the other email as well? The two together could be considered harassment."

Mona opens the door "Did you show her the Facebook messages?"

Tanner looks at Mona then to Paige "There are Facebook messages? I'd like to see those too."

Paige logs into her Facebook showing the woman the various messages from both CeCe and Alison. The woman shakes her head hissing in anger she picks up the computer taking it into an office with a printer and prints out the incriminating messages. Tanner also prints out the first email Alison sent and makes a copy of the video email.

When she is done she turns to Paige "Thank you Miss McCullers. You were right to bring this to me."


Paige stops at the door tucking her computer into Mona's bag shaking her head when Mona gives her a questioning look.

Outside Paige hears her name being called. Paige freezes closing her eyes tightly whispering "Not now."

Mona whispers "You don't have to stop Paige. You owe her nothing."

Paige continues to walk to the car her eyes welling with tears as the video plays in her head. Mona hops in starting the car and hastily retreating. Emily frowns as she watches the car carry Paige away.

Paige looks in the side mirror "Hanna looks so different. I wonder how she is taking Alison's return? Would you be against visiting Hanna to find out?"

Mona shakes her head "No I wouldn't. Hanna is my friend after all. Are you going to tell her anything about what is happening with you?"

Paige shakes her head "Hell no. I am going there for Hanna not for me. If she does ask questions I will leave."

Mona nods "Sounds good. I will make sure Alison's pet isn't there before we go."


Hanna jogs down the stairs to the front door knowing it is Paige she flings it open "Hey. Thank you for coming. How are you?"

Paige smiles "I am good. Before I start I will say this. I am not here to talk about me. If you can not accept that I will leave now." To get her message across Paige turns to leave.

Hanna grabs her arm "I get it. Please stay."

Paige turns back "Okay. I want to know how you are handling Alison being back. I know it was an adjustment to all you girls when she 'Died' but you changed the most after. I feel like you finally came into yourself now that she is back you seem to be drifting away. Are you okay?"

Hanna chokes "You are amazing. With all you are going through right now you come to see how I am doing. I swear that's the only thing I am going to mention about you. Please don't go." When Paige doesn't budge she continues "Honestly I don't know who I am anymore. Alison came back and started back with the same ship she just painted it a different colour. I don't want to become that person again but I feel like this new me isn't good enough. With one look from Alison I can feel myself shrinking away. I hate this feeling but I don't know how to stop it. Nobody seems to notice and if they do they just don't care enough to do anything."

Paige hugs Hanna tightly "You are good enough Hanna. You are smart, brave, compassionate, thoughtful and strong. That person you were before Alison left is gone, she grew into the fierceness that is the new you. Don't lose that Hanna. I know it seems like nobody cares but that's only because they assume you can do it on your own. With everybody going through their own stuff they forget about the people around them. If right now you are feeling like you can't turn to your friends talk to your mom or a therapist. Focus on the future Hanna not on the past. Hold your head high surround yourself in a protective bubble and say you aren't going to hurt me. I won't let you. Don't be afraid to ask for help from your inner guide. It knows the path you need to take it will get you to where you need to go. Remember everything you went through made you who are today don't forget but don't let that control your future. You are good enough Hanna. Should I tattoo it onto your forehead so when you look in the mirror you see it?"

Hanna laughs "No. I'm good."

Paige takes a piece of paper writing down 'Don't let the hurtful words of others affect the person you know you are. You are strong. You are brave. You are good enough. Your light is bright don't let the haters snuff it out.' Handing it to Hanna Paige explains "For when you forget just look at this. You may need to hide it from others but always remember where it is."

Hanna reads it "Thank you Paige."

Mona looks at it "I want one too."

Paige shakes her head putting the piece of paper on the coffee table and taking a picture "I'll write it out for you when we get home. Hanna can we go out the back door? I have a feeling someone I don't want to see is at the front door."

Hanna furrows her brow "Uh sure I guess. I'm not expect-."

A knock comes on the front door. Paige mouths 'Hide that before you open the door. Bye.' Then slips out the back door. Hanna pockets her note before opening the door to reveal Emily standing there.


The next morning Paige goes with Mic to the highschool to get her grades a few minutes later Paige comes out "I passed. Can we go now?"

Mic laughs "Alright away we go."

Mic stops at the Now Leaving Rosewood sign "Are you sure you're ready?"

Paige looks in the side mirror "Yeah. I'm ready for this part of my life to be over."

Mic steps on the gas passing the sign then picking up speed leaving Rosewood in the dust. The further away Rosewood gets the lighter Paige gets.


Two hours later Paige wakes up just as Mic is pulling up beside a gas pump.

Paige stretches "Mm where are we?"

Mic smiles " Just outside Hershey. I am going to fill up. Do you need anything?"

Paige nods "Water but I'll get it I have to go to the washroom too."

Paige exits the store sitting on the curb out of the way of everyone. On the street in front of her old cars drive by. A wet nose nudges Paige's hand with a soft whimper. Paige looks down at a ruff looking dog with sad blue eyes.

Paige runs her hand along his back "Hey little one. Where did you come from?"

Mic looks at them "Hey where'd the dog come from?"

Paige looks up "I don't know. It just came up to me and nudged my hand when I was watching the cars drive by. Do you know where the closest vet is?"

Mic goes back in the store "Where is the closest vet? My niece found a dog we need to get it checked out."

The clerk looks shocked "Is it a brown dog with blue eyes?"

Mic nods "Yeah that's the one."

The clerk gasps "We've been trying to catch that dog for a week. It always runs away hiding behind the dumpster."

Mic raises his eyebrows "Wow. My niece said it just walked up to her and nudged her hand."

The clerk gives directions calling the vet to let her know they are coming. When Mic walks out of the store Paige is in the car with the dog wiggling in her lap. Mic gets in the car closing the door as quietly as he could so the dog wouldn't get startled.


Paige carries the dog into the vet clinic "Hi I found this dog outside the gas station. I was wondering if you could give him a check up."

The vet comes out "You didn't have any trouble finding the place did you?"

Mic shakes his head "No it was pretty easy. How are you today?"

The woman smiles "I am good. You?"

Mic and Paige nod both answering "Good."

The vet gestures towards a door "Right through here."

Paige enters putting the dog on the examination table backing away slightly. The dog whimpers moving to follow Paige. Paige steps forward putting her hand on the table in front of the dog. The dog paws at her hand his whimpering subsiding. While Paige has the dog distracted the vet starts her examination checking the ears, body, teeth and drawing blood.

Once she's done she notifies "Everything looks good. He seems to like you would you be up to giving him a bath?"

Paige nods "Sure. He's got to be feeling all grungy. Don't you boy?"

The dog wags it's tail looking at Paige.

The vet smiles "I will show you to the sink."

Paige follows cleaning the dog with the flea and tick shampoo that was given to her. At the end she towel dries dog "Does that feel better. Who knew your paws were white? The little white patch on your chest is cool too. Lets see what the vet has to say huh."

Paige takes the dog back to the vet showing off his cleanliness.

The vet gasps "Wow. Looking good. I know there isn't an owner would you like to take him? I did the blood tests he is good to go. I would like to keep him here for the weekend to see if we could get the weight up. We would neuter him for you."

Paige switches between looking at the dog and her uncle. Her uncle concludes "We are here all weekend so you have time to decide."

Paige nods patting the dog "You be good okay."

As Paige walks away the dogs cries beg Paige not to leave. She closes her eyes tightly willing the tears away. Paige gets in the car staring out the window her demeanor having changed back into the same sombre way she was in Rosewood.

Mic gets in the car "I didn't say you couldn't have him Paige. He seems to have chosen you. Go back in there and tell them you'll take him when he can leave."

Paige jumps out of the car rushing back into the vets office.

The vet laughs "That didn't take long. If you come tomorrow we will start working with him. We will be neutering him later today."

Paige smiles "Okay. Thank you."

Returning to the car Paige has a giant smile on her face for the first time in three days.
